This mug is so SO close to being one of my favorite coffee things I've tried. Have you ever used something like this before? If not, would you?
Here's the mug: cafflanoshop.c...

As a product designer, I love this! You've basically given me all the design flaws of a product that generally seems like a good idea. I may have to make an improved version of this
The kettle should be metal so you can heat it over a camp stove and have a clip or fold out handle.
@@jonny2085 Its probably plastic so you can microwave water
@@tristanbishop34 thats a good point, what I would do to keep that function then is to add a removable handle so you can microwave the rest and the attach the fully cool handle to the "kettle". so many little things that could be refined on this thing to make it such an amazing product
make sure to add a bigger knob on that handgrinder, that's where 90% of her grinder issues are coming from with the grinder. :)
it's a reasonable good design direction. and usable for demonstration how this design gonna go. but having a plastic cup with hot water like that. and guiding ppl to hold it by any chance in a product in selling is terrible. we might assume incorrect, this is a prototype and the designer knew it. however, the boss say it's okay, that's enough, we can make money from it. let's do that.... well....
It's such a design flaw too. A silicon grip would help to make it easier to handle (see cheap plastic travel mugs with those silicon bands) and it would still look sleek if it was all black. The "kettle" could also easily designed to be a be a touch taller (a cm) to get more grip area + space to the spout. The sealable top could just as easily been a bit more sealable by making the edges a big longer (like those silicon food wrap replacements). There's space inside the kettle when in travel mode to include some kind of handle that attaches to the kettle too.
This screams "we had a good idea but we had to cut out a lot of features in order to stay reasonable in price" which ended up decreasing usability. It almost would've been better to just separate the grinder to a second part that grinds an exact measured amount (so you're not premeasuring at home, because really that arguably defeats the purpose) and using the extra space to make a more usable, sleek pour over set up that is easy to hide. Especially since at that point you can have a screw on top that helps seal things better and a grinder that is actually easier and quicker to use (ie better leverage). Or even an attachment/segment that is airtight/vacuum sealable so you can grind at home and then just have relatively well kept grounds that travels together.
I don't even drink coffee, but you get what it's really like to work food service. So now I'm binging your entire catalog of videos
I'd like to see how the design expert or design engineer on Epicurious would redesign this contraption. It's a neat concept, but even I have some ideas as to how to improve the execution.
I've had one of these for a few years now and it was, for a long time, my daily driver in the office. Our coffee machine was HORRENDOUS, so I used to have this on my desk. And yeah, it's a bit tedious to grind, and the "kettle" is...not the best design, but it did at least let me make some decent coffee without having to leave the office, get into my car and drive all the way to the nearest Starbucks which was the other side of town.
Aeropress and a good hand grinder it is.
Well said! Especially the Aeropress Go. It's all contained in a nifty little cup that you brew into.
@@jcquan17 I love my aeropress go. But I feel this might be saved if the company had spent a few pennies on a silicone sleeve for the kettle part :/
That's pretty much my setup for coffe at work. Aeropress Go lefted in the office, and 14 g coffe doses in 30ml jars pregrinded with a chestnut c2 the same morning or night before.
@@jcquan17 I have the normal Aeropress and an Aergrind which neatly fits into the plunger. It wouldn't fit into the Go, so I find that combo more practical for travel because a mug is way easier to find on the go than a grinder
That's my solution. Getting a 1zpresso Q2 grinder to accompany mine. Fits in the plunger.
I bought one a few years ago for camping and have enjoyed it. Completely agree with your assessment of the kettle portion-I skip using it altogether and have a separate camping kettle that I can also heat the water in. The grinder hasn't bothered me too much, but I'm also a regular hand-grinder user at home.
That said, I think they could really make a solid V2 with a number of improvements aimed at its weak points.
Off topic, but your place looks so nice. The couch + coffee table + tv and bookshelves look sleek and clean together
Both you and James Hoffman skipped releasing a video last Friday, and I missed my usual large mug of joe. I don’t know which is worse, caffeine withdrawal or coffee video withdrawal.
Coffee withdrawal is worse, you can treat coffee video withdrawal with old coffee videos, you can’t treat coffee withdrawal with old coffee!
@@ballagh what
I would imagine most products like this in the price range probably aren't worth buying. Would be awesome if you were able to partner up with a company that makes something like this and redesign the product so it would be something actually worth buying. That's not going to burn the crap out of your hands or make a mess while making your coffee.
I love days when Morgan is full of sentences. Morgan's sentences are what I subscribed for, after all!
I have one of that for a couple of years now. Love it!
It takes time to get use to the "kettle", but once you get used to it, it really easy to handle. You need to hold it on the upper side, it will not burn your hand.
I like to add paper filter for "cleaner" taste.
I loved this review! I’m the one who brought in a Chemex and coffee I ground that morning. Of course, I was slightly embarrassed when I did it, but it started interesting conversation with passers by who saw me brewing the coffee. I also saw my chemex and aero press gang, so it was great! I made new friends! :)
I don't care if it's a grinder, pour over kettle, and filter. If it doesn't have nick cages face on it and call me a national treasure, it's not the perfect mug
full agree
I have a similar thing. It seemed nice in theory, but now it sits at home in its little carrying case. At work I have a .5 liter kettle, hario hand grinder, and melitta dripper at my desk. I also use a thermal carafe and share my coffee with anyone who wants some.
I've taken some coffee kit to work a few times, and I bring an aeropress, coffee beans, and a Timemore C3 hand grinder. In the breakroom we have everyone's personal mug hanging from a board with hooks, and a boiler that is able to dispense boiling water at any moment.
I use Jame's Hoffman's aeropress recipe, and it takes me under 5 minutes to put coffee in my mug and put my stuff away.
You can also just get a good quality double-walled vacuum flask which should be able to keep a hot drink hot for about 5 hours. But I just find it more enjoyable to flex on the other employees who drink instant coffee.
I have had one for a few years and have used it on travels and in the field. It does everything it promises in a nice compact package, though I do recognise the spilling issue.
Nice cats btw.
Do you have another channel?
where you can post “day in your life” vids, makeup tutorials(love how you do your makeup! so beautiful and natural!), what you eat on a day, etc.
oh and how you style your hair. LOVE your hair!
You got a bit of a molly ringwald thing going on. so beautiful! (well, when she was in her teens)
I got something similar on Amazon but with an electric burr grinder. It has a rechargeable battery on it and has twist on lid for carrying. I bought a silicone collapsible kettle to go with it. I have also traveled with an Aeropress, brought my own ground coffee, and used the hotel coffee maker for hot water.
"Welcome to the office. The entire table that just houses by fidget cube." Honestly same.
Morgan, your videos are so fun and filled with information and value! Please keep up the good work! As a member of the hand grinder cult, I beg you, please, try a good quality hand grinder, and retire your Skerton! It is a night and day difference! So much quicker and easier to grind with, and for the price, nothing can touch the hand grinders! To match the grind quality you would need to pay 3 to 5 times more expensive for an electric grinder
I immediately stopped the video and took out my own, identical fidget cube, sitting literally an arms length from me at the PC. I approve.
You might like these single serve pour over things I've seen in Japan. It kind of looks like a tea bag that's open on the top, coffee inside, but has little cardboard arms that come out and sit on the rim of your cup. I think they might be available online in the states.
I can vouch for these. Pretty good in a pinch. I get them at Asian stores here in Canada, so it's likely they're available somewhere to the south.
Copper cow uses this format I believe.
Hand grinding doesn't have to be a slog. Get a good hand grinder and it can actually be an enjoyable experience! The Timemore Chestnut fits inside of an aeropress and is extremely easy to use. You can also go for a bigger hand grinder like an 1zpresso which is even easier to crank but still fits easily into a desk drawer. Hand grinding does not have to suck. I hear a lot of Coffee CZcamsrs that used to be baristas say they hate hand grinding and I honestly feel like that's only because they grind so much coffee, and having to do it manually is just a chore. If you're just a home hobbyist, hand grinding is great. Especially because you can get a much higher quality grinder for WAY less money than a big machine.
I only have a Hario Mini Mill but I feel like that's way easier than the chonky boi in this video, just because it's small enough to fit right in your hand. So you can hold it in the air and you naturally end up moving the crank ~and~ the grinder around each other, both arms doing the work. Having to hold this one on the table and also not being able to get a good grip on it makes it look a lot harder than it needs to be!
For a couple of years i used a hand grinder but I used an elecric screwdriver with a adjustable drill bit to grind my coffee. I know it sounds crazy but it works.
The Cafflano was my gateway into the coffee world, I brewed with it everyday for about a year or so without any additional items except for a good old 10$ kettel and good quality coffee. To me the whole experince was a meditation practice, and the flaws were just additional parameters that if avoided the cup becomes x10 better.
I just have my french press in my office.
There are water dispensers and the hot water is always at about 95-100c. (There's a screen showing the temp.)
I use pre-ground coffee in an air tight container.
Takes me about 5 mins since I just bring my french press back to my table where my mug is.
This makes more sense as a grinding set while camping. I’d store the beans in the cup. Grind into the filter and then place the filter into a regular cup and just pour water from a kettle.
Best part of the video:
“Beans. :D”
Aeropress + hario hand grinder + fellow carter everywhere mug. three small products that dont take up a ton of space at your desk and fulfill all of these tasks better without needing a gooseneck kettle.
She's giving positive vibes. Idk but I felt calmness 😌😌
Great review, wonderfully in depth but also engaging and informative. You answered all the questions I would have asked!
I kept a 10 cup Chemex, a cheap Cuisanart mill grinder, and a Skagg on my desk back when I had a corporate office. Today I have two Java workstations at home: one in my kitchen and one in my home office. (I feed the output of the kitchen one for input-Java and the office one for output-Java.)
I gave the grinder to a coworker who needed *something*, but I couldn't recommend she purchase any grinder in her price range. If I returned to an office, it'd probably get replaced with my Ode.
Have to admit the Chemex always look elegant when making coffee
I had one of these, when I was first getting into coffee. It's a good starting point but there are a lot of flaws to it
The "barista fingers" you're talking about is what my mom calls "asbestos fingers". She has gotten used to cooking and grabbing hot food (not pans) from the stove and oven. Tortillas need to be flipped on the stove? Fingers. Check the temperature of something in the oven? Fingers.
As a former office coffee weirdo I can tell you, that the hand grinder is really not the way to go. It seems like a good choice, but the combination of it being pretty loud and taking quite a long time to grind is the perfect storm of office obnoxiousness. Pre-grinding at home is honestly preferable, but the solution I eventually went with was getting a proper grinder for the break room. Not only it solves your fresh coffee problem, it might just elevate the coffee culture of the entire office.
Omg your cat looks exactly like my old family cat Tigger! I miss her a lot, RIP.
I know, I know... We all watch Morgan for the coffee things, but I don't really watch many barista CZcamsrs, so why do I mesh with Morgan so well?
The Fidget Cube reveal at 12:38
Ah yes, I'm among my people.
I have a similar one of these but it’s rae dunn and was $20 at marshalls. The cup is smaller and there is no kettle spout but it’s not made of plastic so it doesn’t get too hot to hold and the lid actually fits securely
Morgan stays having the wildest sponsers for her videos.
I’ve had one of these for about 5 years. I began by using it as intended, in the office, but drew a LOT of negative attention by noisily hand-grinding beans at my desk in the open-plan team space. I ended up electric grinding at home, bringing in the grounds, and only using the pourover filter with my own mug. The rest of the unit sat in my desk drawer until I left.
It’s such a great concept, and while it’s sooo close to being useful, it’s so very, very far from ready.
I need a coffee mug that will hold a whole pot of coffee and preferably keep it warm LOL
Oh Lord, I just had the most British response to the sponsor portion... 'Oh no, Morgan didn't put a coaster down on that nice table, what is she playing at!?'
just go for a moka pot and a nice handgrinder :) all the places i have worked at had access to a stove top. Store the unground pre weighed beans in the moka pot brewing insert and bring ur handgrinder. Not a huge mess and great coffee.
Right now I'm stuck in a hotel and this would be absolutely perfect for my coffee brewing and consumption needs, if it weren't for the flaws you pointed out. I've been trying to make do with an aeropress and the in-room coffee brewer thing but it's been frustrating.
"We have a lid, for some purpose." Morgan being Morgan....
I know someone who did a lot of business travel, and put together a coffee kit to take to the hotel, complete with a kettle, thermos, filters, grinder, and water filter.
I don't think he would buy this now, or based on some of the issues brought up in this video, but this is a cool concept.
As someone who daily drives a hand grinder happily for my espresso, that grinder offends me.
My arms almost fell off from hand grinding for a double shot espresso. Never again.
@@chomp54321 I do a double every morning. A good quality grinder makes all the difference.
@@chuckmontgomery7571 I have a Hario Skerton, so it is what it is. I use it to grind for pour over and other brewing methods, but the fine grind needed for espresso is too much for my floppy arms. I just go back to the grinder of the espresso machine.
Yes! Have a 1zpresso J-max myself, barely 25 seconds to grind 18g of beans for espresso.
@@ItsRossinator I have the JX Pro, but any of their grinders are great. I used to use a Skerton clone for drip, hated it but tolerated it. Got into espresso and needed a better grinder, the 1zpresso made me a happy man.
I'm an office worker who grinds my coffee at home and uses a v60, filters, and a gooseneck pouring pitcher that i keep in my desk. if you're not shifting desks all the time, it works! but with the number of times I've spilled hot water/tea/coffee on everything on my desk and/or myself, just everywhere I've ever been, a really spill-prone pitcher seems like asking for trouble lol
It was so nice to have met you at Felix in NYC, hope you had a great time and hopefully we will meet again soon!
I'm in love with this whole account especially the barista 😔😔😔
The Hank Green book is sooooo good
I literally love your videos as someone who likes coffee it's educational in a way 💖
i love the fact that youre reading An Absolutely Remarkable Thing during the ad read! i love Hank Green and his books are on my reading list
If I had 55 euros to throw I'd buy to avoid having to leave my room to make coffee. LOL.
I had a Senseo machine as a teenager in my bedroom ;)
I had my own kettle and did pour overs 😂
I like this mug for camping because I love a fresh cup in the early morning of a camping day. There is nothing better.
I was wondering your thoughts on the gojo straw?
Hey Morgan, are cup sizes important when you make a latte, espresso, flat white, or a cappuccino? Or can you use any cups?
Just Found this channel at 3am in the morning......worth it😅🥳 thanks recommendation
been using one as daily for a while (few years), before going for an wilfa grinder, I found putting the filter in and screwing the grinder into the kettle, NOT the cup makes grinding a LOT easier as it wobbled significantly less
I just use an aeropress at work. It takes about a minute and makes the best easy coffee.
I’m picturing someone sitting down in their cubicle and plonking down one of those battery powered jobsite brewers made by Makita with a loud thud.
This is why I drink tea at the office haha!! Great video Morgan! Super enjoyed it :)
The office scenario killed me. Lol
Yes I am a savage who likes to brew 8 people's serving of coffee for my own consumption.
Morgan: "Hello there!"
Me: "General Kenobi"
Its a coffee gadget that will end up in the cabinet
I "backed" this yeeeeeears ago when it was in kickstater
It's pretty cool
For an office I think it'd be better to prepare your coffee at home and take it in a good thermos into work. Then you can quickly pour and enjoy without all the grinding and faffing with the weird little kettle. I could see it working better for camping, or people who travel for work and need a hotel brewer, but even then an Aeropress and a hand grinder might work better and be less annoying.
I'm sending this video to my wife just to show her 8:24. She doesn't truly believe this is a thing.
...
...
In her favor, i used to pull sheets out of the oven sans glove🤗
I got something like this but slightly bigger a couple years ago for visits to hotels in the UK which have in-room kettles (ah...civilization). Totally relate to your experience. There's just some disconnect between the idea of it and actually using the thing. It just doesn't add up to being worth it compared to some of the options you mentioned. Someday they'll get it right!
I was gifted one years ago and it maintains its spot in my camping kit.
It’s probably more for a camping trip than an office. Most office’s have some sort of coffee machine and if they don’t quit lol
I used to live in a car. This little contraption would be really nice
The conclusion definitely seems to be "just get an Aeopress and a hand grinder."
0:01 "General Kenobi"
Me who brings in a grinder, scale, and v60 into my office and just deals with people giving me weird looks
For me I just make coffee at home and bring it to work with a good personal zojirushi insulated mug which keep my coffee warm or iced all day. So that I can enjoy it for most of the day
Gaping absent me to my happiness without caffeine
Great review! I was thinking about buying one, but I’ll stick to an Aeropress for now. Thank you!
I love your channel! You’re so gorgeous!😍❤️
What is your stance on using paper filters over metal filters that are made to not have to use paper filters? I just like the ease of pulling a composable paper filter out, grounds and all, particularly if I'm traveling or in the office. Is the extra resistance of the paper over the metal filter enough to significantly change the quality of the brew?
Your hair man! It's sooo gorgeous.
Morgan how many oz. coffee mug would i need for iced lattes and do you have a certain brand of one?Thankyou!
She has a wonderful kitchen
Every goddamn video Im blown away by how much that hair suits you.
Oh yeah, the coffee content is good too I guess... 😂
For office use, I bring my small Bodum. Seems like a better option
Saw this in my recommendations 😊
0:01 Hello back.I am Familyman.
Ceramic hand grinder are tiring. 😅
Went from a Hario Skerton Plus to a Timemore C2 for the Aeropress and never looked back.
I’ve had one of these for a couple years, and I have to say that it’s not bad. It doesn’t compare to my home set up, but it beats out hotel keurigs every time.
Worth note, their Korean video tutorials give info on doing a bypass brew type of thing. Grind 30g, pour the 280mL capacity of the lid through, then remove the filter and add about 200mL of water using the lid to direct the flow to the side of the mug rather than directly into the coffee (to avoid splashing). I’ve used it when I felt like I needed more than just one small cup’s worth, and it’s been acceptable.
What is the material of the grinder burrs? Could it be possible that the coffee grounds in the cup be fines from the grinder?
Every CZcamsr seems to say "respite" wrong, which I find super interesting. One of those common "read it but never said it" words I guess. "ress-pit", but the P is almost a B.
i use the dripper only with my regular mug and allready take the grinded coffee with me . the dripper alone costs like about $3.50 .
If you want to save money just drink the coffee provided at work. Plus you get to know your co-workers. If you want better but discreetly want to do it, high quality instant coffee. On step up would be use Aeropress with pre grounded beans. Step above that would be Aeropress with grinder….then scale….moka pot… At work I’ve seen it all and noticed the general trend that the more $$$ tend to get more intricate with how they get their coffee fix.
Love your perspective! Write it off!
I had this many years ago and never got the hang of it.. yes it can do many steps, but it doesnt do them well.. I was very interested to see your reaction (especially the grinding xD )
NICE UNBOXING
Morgan, can you film an espresso 101 type video ….please.
or, can you or someone else recommend one?
Love your vids
Since the "kettle" portion is plastic, maybe they mean for it to be microwaved? (There's no electric kettle at my office.)
